After an amazing five years in Stuttgart, Germany, David and I have moved back to Charleston, SC (surprise)!  It was a part of our plan to stay for about five years in Stuttgart and then return to our beloved southern city.  I had hinted about a lot of changes coming in 2020 back in this post, and after what felt like months and months of waiting around, covid shutting down most of our last trips, and covid stressing us out about being able to even move back, everything finally fell into place in June and then we essentially spent most of July packing out, having one last relaxing vacation to Greece, and making the big move back to Charleston the end of July.

We loved every minute living in Stuttgart, along with all of the travels we were able to do throughout Europe with a few trips to Asia and Africa mixed in.  We absolutely loved living in our historic Stuttgart baudenkmal (a registered historic monument!) home in the city of Stuttgart.  And I will never, ever forget our view from our place, overlooking a cathedral that kept time for us and the entire city.

But now we are BACK in Charleston!!!  I LOVE this gorgeous city, nestled in the South Carolina lowcountry, where the live oaks draped in trailing Spanish moss line the parks, the scent of jasmine lingers through the air in the spring, the houses are colored pastel pinks, blues, and yellows, and where you can watch the sun set over the inlet as the dolphins jump out of the glossy marshland at sunset, or dip your toes in the warm southern ocean.

The Underwoods are home. ❤️

If you recall, we bought a downtown home last year and have lots of exciting things to share about that!!  Will catch y’all up very soon!!!
